Discussion point: I'm planning to stop counting so closely after I reach 100 as it has become a bit of a weird obsession that feels counterproductive at the moment. Sometimes it feels as if it slows the time down and, of course, there is the constant nagging feeling that I am actually counting down to a future date where I can drink... Odd thoughts, but not uncommon I think...
[Not making a judgement about those who do count, I'm just sensitive to the fact that it might be counterproductive to me at this moment.]

It's important, I think, that you do what you feel is best for you.
Please stay close to SR and to all of your support systems, dear one.
Live and love every sober moment, my friend.
